Autorenporträt
Brenda Jones has spent years roaming the woods and fields across Canada, gathering and studying the herbs that live here in order to better understand the properties of these amazing plants. With a background as an artist and illustrator, she began painting each herb in detail to help with identification, and eventually published her first herb book, Medicinal Herbs of Eastern Canada. She has now completed the Western version, and continues to expand her own backyard herb garden, filling her cupboards with tinctures, oils, and herbal teas.
